  Much like all the ‘questions’ about voting back in 2020, almost all of these issues come down to people not knowing how shit works and assuming that means that no one else does. So much misinformation is just partial facts with no context.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looking for a free speech Lemmy instance⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It appears that you are looking to get all of the benefits of community, while absolving yourself of any of the responsibilities. You want to use someone else’s i stance, without having to follow any of their rules. You want to have your own little safe space to spew whatever it is that obviously goes against community guidelines, but also for that space to be able to interact freely with the community. We don’t want to interact with you on that level, that’s why we are all here, following those rules.

  If you really want a place where you can say whatever shitty thing you think everyone eeds to hear, then go make your own instance.

  Which will be de-federated from all of these instances.

  Alternatively, ‘Huge corpo wants to siphon government money to reopen nuclear facility years after disaster’ sure sounds like the dystopian version to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've Been Reviewing AI Chatbots for 4 Months and They've Rewired My Brain⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  AI chatbots, in one sense, are easier to use than Google in that a simple question yields a clear and direct answer. A regular Google search would require you to jump around different parts of the internet, reading articles and forum posts to find the correct answer for yourself. Letting technology do the neurological synthesis for you is admittedly awesome and a real time saver

  Yep, because ‘just google it’ has become too difficult.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK satellite startup Blue Skies Space wants to sell astronomy data 'as a service'⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Reminds me of the AccuWeather ceo/trump appointee who wanted to sell off all the us gov weather satellites so it could be privatized. Everything must be commodified.

  Same as the old norm

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Slay the Spire 2 - Reveal Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wonder if this will finally get me to put down the original or if I just play both from now on lol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI bot capable of insider trading and lying, say researchers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Forming coherent sentences puts it above large sections of the population. Eventually they’re going to have to dumb down the speech output, ala Dubya during his presidency. Add to that all the conditioning to trust authoritative sources and this is going to turn into a real problem sooner rather than later. I think one of the first things to come out that will really cause damage is replacing teachers with ai. If all those teachers out there would quit asking to make more money than a 12 year old in a meat packing plant, maybe this wouldn’t happen, but I digress… (Kudos to all the teachers out there, obviously.)
